I am having trouble with the server I'm running my trac on. I accidentally had the nightly back up going to the internal hard drive instead of the external. So it filled up, I erased the new files, deleted everything, and rebooted. I'm still getting this error when I try to connect to trac:

I've tried stopping and starting mysql. I'm assuming this is a mysql problem and not a trac problem since "$ mysql -u -root -p" returns the same problem. I'd like to reemphasize that this was working before so my config files should be fine. Any thoughts?

Okay, fixed it. First off my log was /var/log/mysql/error.log while /var/log/mysql.log and mysql.err were blank. The error was that the plugin FEDERATED was disabled. So I started with "mysqld -u root --federated"
